Rav4 reviews9/14/2023 Said output is split courtesy of 176bhp from the 2.5-litre petrol with the rest arriving via the electric motors. Nope, it really is hybrid all the way for the RAV4 with absolutely no plans for a diesel or even a pure petrol version in the UK (all-electric may be a different story, but currently there are no plans for one).įor now, you’d better get used to the 2.5-litre Hybrid Dynamic Force engine, available with 219bhp in the all-wheel drive model and 215bhp in the front-wheel drive version. Self-charging hybrid only – but there must be a diesel version on the way? If for some reason, you don’t want a Toyota badge or dealer support. Having said that, there is a badge-engineered RAV4 available in the form of the Suzuki Across. The current model is built on a fresh global architecture GA-K platform, and is styled in that angular, almost cartoon-like form that only Japanese designers seem to have truly perfected.Ĭurious? So you should be, as it’s shaping up to be a welcome antidote to the slew of platform-sharing and predominantly diesel SUVs that are currently dominating UK roads – and sales charts. The previous version may have had its trick hybrid hardware hidden up its sleeve to help lower running costs, but it was wrapped up in such a dreary package the RAV4 Hybrid never made it onto anyone’s radar.
